SDSU turns the ball over on their opening drive. Keenan Reynolds from Navy scores his 63 rushing TD. Ties him with Ron Dayne for 6th all time in FBS history. 7-0 Navy.

COuld be a very fast game with both teams rushing the ball as much as they do.

13-7 SDSU at the half Aztecs defense is the story in this game.

Navy won 17-16. Think 5 turnovers in the 4th quarter. SDSU had a chance but missed a 34 yard fg with like 7 seconds left.

Ugly game. Sloppy execution on both sides. The two impressive things to me were the SDSU defensive game plan and the will and relentlessness of Navy. The Aztecs had that game. Chance after chance and Navy's defense would "bend but not break".

Greatest play ever. Better than Cal - Stanford...had they won.

But, I thought the ball was dead on a lateral that hits the ground like that?

Oh

last play was amazing. Think the okay call on the 2pt conversion was dumb. Why only one option if you aren't throwing to Titus Davis ?

Defenders lost focus during the chaotic play....4 defenders right behind the ball being caught and no one in front....then on the toss 4 guys again going all out on the tackle when you knew he had to toss it backwards and yet no one played it...then everyone again ran towards the next ball carrier and acted surprised he tossed it backwards to another.

Still can't believe how bad each coach assed it up

Meh, they were in the game until the final 5 minutes despite doing every single thing wrong, it seemed (2 huge pass plays against an offense that kinda stunk other than those plays; a pick 6; missing a PAT and 2-point conversion), so that's not a crushing. More of a team that's going to get to spend a good long time thinking they could have won their bowl if they hadn't screwed up on a number of big plays. If anything, they were better at moving the ball --- they just botched virtually anything when it counted.

Now, so far in this Rutgers-UNC game, a crushing is happening. Which I didn't expect (at least not in this direction).

Couple of my friends were giving the big ten shit for losing to LA tech

Yes, the big ten sucks because our 9th place 6-7 team lost to LA TECH in the who honestly cares bowl.

I'm about to make an argument, now, that the big ten is amazing because of what Rutgers is doing. Just so they know how stupid it is to generalize a conference based off one game.

lol, yeah. Illinois was a shitty 6-6 team that got into a bowl because, as a Power 5 team, they had more name power than other shitty 6-6 teams (you know, like our Bobcats). Anyone who actually watched Illinois for any length of time knew they were about as piss-poor of a bowl team as the current bowl over-saturation could grant us.

You're preaching to the choir. The pundits will use stupid aIllinois as an example of Big 10 mediocrity though.
